Hi there, my name is Leo and run a studio on the westside of Norway where I do music and video stuff for youtube. I also have a band called Frog Leap, where we do my metal covers live.
For my covers I play everything myself as well as record, mix, master, shoot and edit the music & videos.
My neighbors love it.. They are banging on the wall right now 🤘
🤣🤣🤣
Turn it up louder. They'll love it more and you drown out the wall beating 😆
Turn up the volume or they break your window so they can hear better 🤗
Don't forget to bang back signaling you can hear them! lol
@Fred Flintstone almost started a riot years ago when I was living in a predominantly mexican neighborhood...they payed their mexi-polka....I played Brujeria Mantando Cueras...& Raza Odiada albums...
They went silent.
I'm Aussie. This is the best version of this song iv heard. My husband has just been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. This song is getting me by. On repeat.
Praying for him
@@scottwhitley2242 lol folding your hands will do nothing...
Probably not, but being an asshole won't do anything either.@@peaveyst7
@@InitialDreadly No. He just pointed out the stupidity of what you said. That's a truth teller not an asshole.
If you think he wasn't being an asshole, then you're probably one too.@@0Zolrender0
As an Aussie, this song is sacred. You nailed it, Leo! Kudos from Australia!
Damn straight he did! Fellow Aussie right here and this is a bloody great cover!
Nah, yeah, he gets my vote too.
I thought BBA was originally french, probably some dumb friend lied to me
He's a fair dinkum legend!!!!
Only thing missing is Garret's dance moves.
Burn that bed! Hope everyone is doing good! What do you wanna hear next? Let me know in the comments:)
I'd like to request "Short skirt, Long jacket"
Frog Leap Studios
rebel yell, lost in the shadows (The Lost Boys OST), burn - the cure.
Hope you’re doing okay dude x
more ace of bases
Don’t stand so close to me
mutter by rammstein or don't cry by guns n' roses🙏😛
Midnight Oil, great Aussie band!
Ooh i.d like you to do a Slice of heaven by Dave Dobbins Ty in advance from this Kiwi Warrior Princess
Indeed. All Leo needs now is a few ACDC and Cold Chisel songs and he should be set if he ever tours Aus.
The greatest band Australia ever produced.
Rose Tattoo !
lisa anderson imagine his version of Bliss or Be Mine Tonight by Th’ Dudes!
As an Aussie who knows the importance of the meaning behind this song, thanks for taking it up a notch and sharing this powerful song once again! Great rendition!
What does it mean?
@@reliquiae9017 Aboriginal land rights and recognition
@F.B.I r/Iam14andthisisdeep wasn't edgy enough for you, was it?
There’s some of us in the states that know the importance as well. I feel that Leo’s harder vocals are more fitting.
@@deeanna5814 agreed, but I don't think he will go into politics and really fight like he is able to
When the riffs are so tasty that not just your bed starts burning, but your body, your entire flat and your neighbours' flats too.
Awesome cover!🤘😎🤘
What a beaut! As always I'm here to request that you complete the holy trinity that is Toto. Cover Rosanna by Toto!
^This needs more upvotes...
OH HELL YA!!!!! but he needs to do it with rabea and hannah to keep it consistent :D and also include the missus on base and the little one just for the cuteness factor :D
Been waiting for that one since Africa and when he did hold the line I was like yea now he has to do it
@@WX4CB ain't gonna happen anytime soon. maybe after c19 is over.
My dad used to love this song. He passed away one year ago now. You miss me so much, Dad. Love you.
Skills are amazing. Drummer, guitarist, singer, bassist, screamer, producer, engineer, director, writer. AMAZING!
Dude, I requested this a few months back. This is everything I coulda hoped for.
Yep, a bloody good cover of a bloody good song \m/
Justin if you requested this one, then you have my thanks! I knew this was going on my Leo favs list at the opening riff. Just one downside, my Leo favs list is so long I'm not sure it still qualifies as a favs list.
Glad u like lt
Cool story bro but needed more dragons
As a teenager, this was one of my favorite songs and yes I knew the meaning behind the song. Leo's version still brings out the raw emotions just as Midnight Oil's version did.
Couldn't agree more Thomas
As an Aussie, and an Oils fan, I definitely approve. Still would love to see Leo cover Power and the Passion (especially that drum solo) or King of the Mountain by the Oils though ;)
Yes, those two would also fit. One of my favourites is Blue Sky Mine, maybe that would work aswell.
Be interesting to see what he could do to some Icehouse tunes.
Was I the only one waiting for the famous Peter Garrett dance moves?
@@bernhardkrickl3567 Blue Sky Mine is one of my faves as well, I singled out those 2 songs for what Leo could do with them.
Leo's had plenty of fun in the past with percussion, and it was the same with Power and the Passion, using fire extinguishers and lamp shades. And Leo belting out the chorus would be f*#king epic.
And King of the Mountain? Well, he's in Norway, I imagine he could have fun getting some aerial footage to go along with the title of the song.
@@timmcc6899 I can definitely imagine Leo having fun with Power and the Passion :) and he would surely make a great cover of King of the Mountain, too, but the latter isn't among my Oils favourites.
Leo is just a monster, and keeps getting better!
🎶 Frogleap Friday, you're the one! You make🤘 *Metal* 🤘 lots of fun! 🎶
THIS is the sort of stuff that should be topping the charts!
I agree with you. But unfortunately this is not an industrial product. No chance of reaching the charts. Just our playlists.
@@basslastig7456 Sad but true! But as long as someone still makes music as good as this, we should be happy. :-)
@@AlexGarcia-co1ec Agreed! ^^
Just the level of energy that song needs - fantastic.
My mate died of a heart attack last week, he was a massive Oil's fan. He woulda loved this
Sorry for the loss
@@direwolf5134 like your words do anything.
So sorry for your loss. Keep rockin' in his memory.
@Crabsta love to you
Sorry for your loss mate 😢🍻
Not every song leo hits the mark but when he does it rocks your soul
We want to hear whatever you play next.
best answer so far.
+1
Curse you, Leo! "...How do we sleep while our heads are banging!?..." 🤘
Completely forgot about this song. I was DJ-ing a family event and this came on. Thought, “110% could see Leo covering this”…well… here we are 🔥🤘🏻🔥🤘🏻🔥
Bloody brilliantly done great cover to a great song and being an Aussie this is awesome
So true. AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE!
Robert Ditcham Oi Oi Oi
As an Aussie whenever I hear one of my favourite musicians cover an Australian classic I get tingles 😊
As a long time Midnight Oil fan (early 1980's), I love that this song is alive and getting reinterpreted in these ways. Great version, love it!
No respect at all for songs like this. The oils should have never been.
@@Alias1983 shhhh
"Breakfast at Tiffany's" by Deep Blue Something might make an interesting cover?
I second this suggestion!! 😜
Not ''might''. It *will* be an interesting cover.
Simple minds don't you forget about me
@@Harrythe1st to be fair, most of the Breakfast Club soundtrack would be a good idea.
I could hear that being sung death metal style.
Leo - please cove "Mr. Blue Sky" by ELO.
OMG Yes!!!!
Yes
YES!
I’d love to hear Queen Of The Hours by ELO as a metal song
The god OFFLER says YES
No sausage offering needed.
you did real justice to this piece of culture
How about Billy Joel's "We Didn't Start the Fire"? That's crying out for a metal version...
would be a great sequel to this song haha!
Juke Box Hero. (Featuring Hannah and Rabea)
Mr Piano Man
River of Dreams.
Piano Man is one I wanna hear too.
Composition and performance way exceeded my expectations. This one should be a radio hit. Period.
Leo's neighbors are the luckiest mother truckers 🤘
even tho his room is so soundproof u can't hear anything even if ur on 2nd floor :P
@@Dragonsvenny That would be his studio which is in the house he and his wife had built.
@@Dragonsvenny Do you really think that his family and he doesnt blast it in , lets say, kitchen or living room?
I am about to turn 40 and have been listening to so much 80's music, It's so hard to come up with what you could do next......I don't mind 40. How bout this, bring in the right woman and do Roxette Joyride?
I’m 41 so I remember that bald guy from midnight oil all over mtv. It was an awesome song. This cover is amazing. Keep picking great covers.
Peter Garrett.
Incredible to hear this song getting picked up. Great to see it and Midnight Oil featured.
Journey, dont stop believing
My mum and I went to see one of the last midnight oil concerts ever, so glad I got to see one of the bands who I grew up with. We were smack right in the centre, front row, right in front of Peter Garrett. It was the most amazing experience and I really couldn't be happier than I was at that concert because all the other bands of my mother's inherited taste from the 70s and 80s are all either dead or no longer together. Technically I've been to two of their concerts, but the first one I was still a baby in my mum's belly. She really liked this cover, man.
One of his best covers, for sure!(In my opinion)
Hell yeah metal protest tune. Midnight Oil...Australian legends. Leo you gotta do "In a Big Country" by BIG Country or.. Icehouse- Great Southern Land (which should be the Australian National Anthem)
I'll second the Icehouse- Great Southern Land call
The Aussie National Anthem should be Adam Hills’s version to the tune of Working Class Man. Even as a Kiwi I love it ha ha.
Traylarpark12 there is so much Oz stuff that would be amazing to cover 👍
@@samuraidarryl i was just going with what I know personally. The songs I mentioned seem "obscure" to most people in my region of the USA.
Leo plays _almost_ every instrument. Do you want him to learn bagpipes? Then, YEAH, I think I do want "In A Big Country". 👍🏻
Black Bomb A (2007): We made a metal cover of "Beds are burning"
Leo 2020: Hold my bass
thanks god someone knows of BBA
The one from BBA is better 😁
BBA's cover is heavier
The Byronic Mick BBA’s cover isn’t heavier. Not music wise. The guttural vocals are the only thing heavier IMO. Both are great covers.
This song was MEANT to be metal....WTG Leo! nailed it s always
Flobots - Handlebars.. PLEASE!! This would be Godlike, especially metalized by Frog Leap!
Shaun McEpic that song gives me goosebumps
Shaun McEpic oh hell yah!!!!
yes! yes! yes!
Once upon a time you get a total freak like this........thank the heavens the time happened to be now!!!!!!
Respect to you Leo.
i know better than to start watching Leo's videos in the middle of the day...cause i go down the Leo rabbit hole and i dont get anything done all day! DAMN YOU LEO FOR BEING SO GOOD!
Out of all the covers of this song, this is the only one that has the energy it needs to match the original. Thank you!
I saw Midnight Oil in concert at Berkeley in the 90's. First concert I ever attended.
Leo's metal covers are to songs what salt is to food. They bring out the flavor!
This is why I've never questioned my Patreon membership for many years.
Same here - that money has been written off mentally years ago :D
This has to be my favorite mid-song arrangement by Leo in any of his covers (beginning at 3:27). Amazing.
I agree with that,very cool bridge.
As an Australian, and a Midnight Oil fan. Thank you for this.
I'm 67- old school. You are f-ing good man. Better than original Might take a trip to itunes today.
No one covers a song like Leo. Very talented, and very funny.
I'd love to hear you do a cover of Foreigner - Jukebox Hero
I'm back to listen again. I think the whole world needs this track in their life.
Best popsong to metal cover so far!
Leo...When Doves Cry and Lets Go Crazy
(Both obviously by the very talented and much missed Prince)🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Not many people know the "beds are burning" line comes from when the English settlers would burn the aboriginal villages in Australia to take their scared children and reeducate them in missions, and then follow their adult groups to the next water source and repeat in order to navigate through Australia and take their land from them. Midnight Oil made this song to talk about how it was Australia’s turn to give back to the native aboriginal peoples. White Australia’s treatment of its Aboriginal population had been terrible throughout much of its history, but Midnight Oil believed that reparation and forgiveness were possible. The chorus' lyrics refer to the white people of Australia, as to how can they sat and do nothing while the aboriginal people of Australia suffered and lived in squalor with no basic necessities or a say in anything, so in that case, how could they sleep while the people that were born to this land were being ignored and their beliefs tarnished.
Even more than a decade after releasing this song, when they played it in the 2000 Olympics closing ceremony in Sidney, they decided to do it dressed completely in black with the word "sorry" written over it, because then Prime Minister John Howard was still refusing to offer an apology to the native inhabitants on behalf of Australia. As a crowd of over 100,000 stood in support of Midnight Oil's performance, as Prime Minister Howard remained seated, the band realized they were delivering a message far beyond their five-man outfit: "It wasn't Midnight Oil's gesture," Oils vocalist Peter Garrett recalled in 2016. "It was really a gesture for everybody who felt that way." As an Olympics volunteer later expressed, «most people in that stadium had paid over $1000 a ticket, or got them through high powered corporate jobs, meaning the stadium was full of conservative voters supporting the refusal to say sorry - or were they...? Everyone in that stadium seemed to know the words & be singing along & supporting "the time has come to say fair's fair, to pay the rent now, to pay our share".»
I don't know if Leo kows about this (but the all-black video gives me ahint) or he just wanted to send a message about allowing wrongdoing in general, but props to him either way.
Wow! You turned a song I listened to in my younger day for it's sound and rhythm to the most educational world history lesson I've ever had. Thank you for the insight. I will now listen with more knowledgeable ears.
@@phelinephrenzy2358 If you like music teaching you history lessons and you enjoy heavy metal (which I suppose you do if you're here), take a look into Sabaton, basically everything they do is a history lesson.
Greets!
@@AMetalPotato you're the 2nd person on UA-cam who told me that, plus a guy at an Amon Amarth concert! I tried. Really. I love all metal and hard stuff, foreign and domestic, in addition to other genres. I just couldn't get into the sound. Too dissonant, musically, for me. Sorry, but thanks for the suggestion. Lotsa love. Hey, at least we agree on Leo!!
@@phelinephrenzy2358 then maybe you'll like Amorphis, their "Skyforger" album is a good start, they sound so smooth, soothing and melodic... Most of their most recent albums are about Finnish mythology (not strictly history, but you know what I mean). Also, try Powerwolf and, of course, Iron Maiden has made a lot of great history lessons (like "Alexander the Great", "Passchendale", "Afraid to Shoot Strangers", "Aces High"...). Then you have Turisas: "The Varagian Way" is a conceptual album about Norsemen trading all the way to the Byzantine Empire and most of their songs have a historical setting, like "Rex Regi Rebellis" or "Venetoi! -Prasinoi!". Iced Earth made a whole album dedicated to American History ("The Glorious Burden"). If you like death metal, Nile are literally always singing about ancient Egypt, and Hail of Bullets are all about WW2
Héctor Sebastián Lombraña Def me some Maiden!! Saw with GHOST couple yrs ago. Power Wolf, yes. Will have to check out others. Tbh, I don't listen to words much bc my music ear drowns them out. Allows me to appreciate, a lot of non-English music. Norse, pagan, Finnish, Bollymetal (yes, good stuff), etc. Have you checked out The HU? Now that's Mongolian tradition and history at it's finest. Videos explain what words canno. Plus you can Google translations. All these genres, and sub-genres add such a rich and expansive dimension for those who love music for more than what it is, too! it's life breath for me. Try some Bornholm, Heilung, Manegar, Osi and the Jupiter, for starters. Then seek out "similar to… " on your downloader of choice. I'll try yours, if you try mine, lol!! Have fun!
One of my favorite songs just got better
Best Leo solo in ages. Usually I turn off when he deviates from the cover, but today I cranked it up
I like his solos and how they deviate from the song a lot. They are rarely directly based on the song at hand but somehow I get it. I think he just lets himself be inspired by the song and without thinking too much about it jams out what comes into his mind. It feels like however far he deviates there still is some connection.
He's actually contract fully obligated to deviate from the original during the solos it's what he agrees to when he licenses the song's he covers.
Huh? So you want covers to sound exactly like the original? Whats even the point of checking out other peoples covers if you want the exact same thing as the original.
Zombie solo is killer.
Absolutely agree! I noticed it straightaway as well. Finally a solo consistent with the rest of the track! I understand that the solo has to deviate from the original song, but Leo throwing in Polka/Ska beat in every second song, and/or using a differently tuned guitar makes me go "oh no, not this shit again".
Don’t know this cover band,but this was the first drummer I fell in love with. Power & Passion is a masterpiece in my mind. Later I fell in love from the Nickleback drummer. I have worked security at concerts for 30years and this guy is brilliant in my opinion
You are therapy for my back pain.
I’ve been waiting for Leo to cover this!! Sounds amazing 🔥🔥🔥
I used to like this song. Now, I love it!!!
I wear my Frogleap Bunny t-shirt with pride…. and when folks ask what it is I simply reply… “It’s ‘kin Frogleap dude, check Leo out and feel the metal stir your soul”….
By far the best song. Have it on repeat continuously.. it hits so damn good.
Speechless...
Choon, I keep coming back...Best cover ever..!
Leo is one of the most metal men in the world!
this song was a staple on MTV back when MTV actually played vidoes.
Absolute magic
Would love to see how you go about mixing this all together from separate recordings, playing all the parts of the band
"Georgie Girl" by The Seekers has a whistled riff that I'd love to hear you shred 😆
Righteous cover.
Alan Parsons Project's "Eye In The Sky". I want to see if you can do it.
I'm pretty sure he can figure it out. great suggestion though, like wish you were here above
Oh, yes please!!! But you have to include the "Sirius" opening intro.
@@donaldjohnson1148 yep, Sirius has to be there as the intro!
Members from Midnight Oil are biting in their tables, when they realize how great their song could have been. But it needed a Leo Moracchioli first.
Must have for every day!!
Leo, I need a hero 😂🙈🖤 You would be mine if you covered "Holding out for a hero" by Bonnie Tyler 🖤 Greetings from Germany
OMIGOD YESSSS!!!!
That song is pretty metal even in its original form!
YYEEEEEEEESSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
UP!
I’d love to see Leo’s version in a vid that tells the story to those that don’t know it. I think the harder vocals are more appropriate to the way many of us feel about the appropriation of Indigenous lands and culture and the forgetting that we are stewards of the natural world.
Good song made great. Metal makes everything better.
Hi from Australia. I didn't know that anyone outside of Australia had even heard of Midnight Oil.
Edit: I'm learning that the Oils were quite popular outside of Australia. Thanks Leo for allowing me to be educated on this point.
I was surprised too when i found out this song was a hit outside aus, apparently theres a few cold chisel songs that snuck out too.
@@DragoserakerIT Revisiting Leo's previous work, I stumbled across two other Aussie songs. One was John Farnum's "You're the Voice" and the other was Men at Work's "Down Under".
I was pleasantly surprised too.
Even more surprised that I like this. I love the Oils and totally expect covers of such awesome songs to be ordinary but our man here knows his stuff.
Song and album were huge hits in Canada when I was a kid
Tall Tails And True, The Models, Flesh For LuLu, Not Drowning Waiving, The Church , and several others I first started listening to in the 70's 80's 90's in Wyoming. Red Sails In The Sunset is still a regular listen. INXS Underneath The Colors and Inxsive are also on regular rotation.
As an Aussie, I approve!
Also, could you do a cover of another Aussie classic, "Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again" by the Angels?
Absolutely!
Oh hell yea!
'could you do a cover of another Aussie classic'
no way, get fucked, fuck off.
Wait, go back.... there's another Aussie classic?
@@Britton_Thompson well there is the national anthem, otherwise known as 'Khe Sanh'
one of his best!
Best version i ever. love it ....... don't ever stop
Maybe I'm too late and you won't see this: I've had a song I've wanted to do forever, and can never get bands to give in.
I Feel the Earth Move by Carole King. The chorus should be so heavy it hurts.
Also Sixteen Tons. Tennessee Ernie Ford does the most famous version.
Yes, I Feel the Earth Move would be great!
I vote for Sixteen Tons. Just for its obscurity.
I keep putthing that Carole King song in the comments, and on Patreon, too. I think that can get soooo heavy that you actually feel the earth move.
I love this version
It`s definately time for "Stairway to heaven", Leo !! If there`s one guy out there who can do a great cover for this song, hell yeah ... it`s YOU !!!
Thank you for letting us have such a great time listening and watching you :-)
Didn't you see the sign? NO STAIRWAY! 😂
DENIED
From an Aussie worried a bit when I saw this thanks mate completely nailed it
Finally listened to me. Thank you leo!!!
well if there's one thing I never, ever expected it was to see the Oils covered.
For those wandering, Midnight Oil are Australian hard rock legends, and the song is about Native Title and the historical and ongoing mistreatment of Aboriginal Australians, who until 1992 were not considered to have any land title rights at all. This was bad even by normal British Standards, where native peoples were usually considered to have some form of native title, leading to things like American Indian reserves/treaties and the Maori Treaty (of course the colonisers just broke the treaties and stole the land anyway). Australia, however, was considered Terra Nullius until 1992 and Aboriginal Australians had absolutely no claim to any land, despite living here for roughly 60,000 years before white settlement.
Great band, though, and great track. Thanks for the update, I knew there was a story behind the song.
Midnight oil is not, and never was a "hard rock" band.
Alexisonfire, a Canadian band from Toronto, did a pretty heavy cover of the dead heart (another song by midnight oil) around 2009 I think. it’s pretty good check it out if you get the chance. It’s what got me into midnight oil as a Canadian.
TowellytheGreat very informative!! Thanks for that!!
Wm wm - until they were forever linked to Leo! lol
I just love it when you deviate from the song and throw your own little bit in before returning to the source. Great stuff.
Dying for Korn to cover this. It's in their vein so much.
Probably shouldn't have listened to this right before I head to bed
As an Aussie, I applaud your choice and how well you did the song.
Though I'd love to see you do Toy Soldier by Martika and or Life in a Northern Town by Dream Academy, just to see if either could be done that way XD
I'd love to see both of them covered, great choices
GO LEO GO !!! 🤘
Even being a huge fan since "Poker Face" I sometimes think that video was fun but not going in my "Leo Favorites" Spotify playlist, and then freakin BOOM!
I'm pretty sure that Leo used to go by the name "Bliix" a long time ago, but that person was using original vocal tracks and got shut down. Either way, he (or whomever) did a metal version of Eric Cartmans "Poker face" from South Park. 🤣
Whens the Australian Tour?
When is any tour?
Can't be talking tours anywhere while this pandemic is going on.
@@zeldrath_ was just gonna say that !
Love your style Leo....
Great version Leo.!!! Always loved this song. Now I love it twice as much.
I'd love to see what you'd do with Boingo's "Just Another Day" or Tanita Tikaram's "Twist In My Sobriety."
Leo, You are brilliant!
How can you take an amazing song and make it better? Here's proof!
